...in a Barbie world. Life in plastic, it's fantastic! You can brush my hair, undress me everywhere. Imagination, life is your creation. Come on Barbie lets go party! Anyone else remember that song by Aqua back in the day lol. As a kid growing up, one of my favorite past times was meeting up with all my friends and playing barbies. We would all get together and bring all the accessories we had and combine them and we'd have quite a Barbie world...ahhh the good 'ol days *sigh* lol. I thought about all the awesome gadgets and gizmos Barbie had and how bad I wanted a pink Corvette just like hers (still dreaming that one, lol maybe one day). On to the nails...

For the base I used Orly's 'It's Not Me, It's You' and on the index Orly's 'Purple Crush'. For the sunglasses I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art Soft Blue and Pearl Black. For the necklace I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art Bikini Pink and So Easy Stripe Rite Gold.

For the bow I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art White and So Easy's Stripe Rite Yellow, topped off with two coats of Seche Vite

Oh how we all need a lil chocolate every now and then, at this rate I'll at least have it all the time for a couple of days lol. I would have to say my favorite HERSHEY'S is the bar with the almonds....YUMMMMMmmm. I got a bar for my b-day---somebody knew heehee. I don't like how they try to experiment every so often by adding different flavors to the KISSES, like they have a caramel one out that's pretty tasty, and they had a s'mores one that was pretty interesting too. Hope yal enjoy the chocolate, I know I did lol.

I used a base of Zoya's 'Angelina' and Sally Hansen SALON's 'All the White Stuff'. For the lips I used Kiss Brush-On Nail Art--Red and L.A. Colors Art Deco--Red Glitter to make them sparkle. For the uncovered kiss I used Zoya's 'Angelina', and So Easy Stripe Rite's 'Silver' and "Hershey's" written with Nail Art Pen by NuBar--Black. The wrapped kisses by So Easy Stripe Rite's 'Silver', with the tails and "Kisses" written with Nail Art Pen by NuBar--Basic White, the white stripe was also done by Basic White. A few rhinestones added for more sparkle, all topped off with two coats of Seche Vite

Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh Duh-nuh-nuh-nuh BATMAN! The Dark Knight, whether played by Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, or Christian Bale, he can save me any day (I'd go with Christian Bale lol and oh how I'll miss Heath Ledger as The Joker). Batman is one of my favorite super heroes, not only is his car to die for but so is that suit, who doesn't like a man in uniform lol! I can't wait for the next installment to come out in theatres.

Keeping up with the prints I decided to do plaid. Plaid is awesome because there's so much you can do with it, from clothes to shoes, from jewelry to nails, the possibilities are endless. How about plaid printed cars--I don't think I've seen one and I can't say I'd jump on board with that but it would be pretty cool lol. On to the nails, of course I couldn't pick just one color lol--so on one hand I have a purple color as the base color, with the middle finger having a teal for it's base and on the other hand I chose to use the teal as the base color, with purple for the middle finger, and all types of colors for the lines heeheehee. The purple is like a surprise in a bottle, it has speckles of glitter mixed in and at first I was a little disappointed because it went on really dull but when I painted that top coat, all I can say is OMG...I was pleasantly surprised. The teal kind of reminds me of girl-scout-green, if you stare at it too long....boy I sure could go for some somoas speaking of girl scout cookies MMmmmmm...anyways lol, it went on very smooth and didn't need a top coat to make it shiny (but of course I used one). I guess I'll have to wait til next year for those cookies :(

On the right hand I used China Glaze's 'Flying Dragon' as the base for all except the middle, where I used Orly's 'Green with Envy'. For the index finger I used Kiss' Brush-on Nail Art Paint--Beach Green and Kiss' Brush-on Nail Art Paint--Neon Orange for the lines. For the other fingers I used Kiss' Brush-on Nail Art Paint--Beach Purple and So Easy's Stripe Rite--Yellow. Topped off with two coats of Seche Vite.
